Municipal

Chlorides, in the form of MgCl (Magnesium Chloride) and CaCl (Calcium Chloride) are by far the most abundantly used products on the market for road dust control. This is mainly due to their extremely low cost, although unfortunately also comes at the expense of the environment due to their highly corrosive nature. Dust Stop® Municipal Blend was specifically engineered to be comparable in cost to the chloride based dust suppressants, while using inputs that result in no adverse impact on the environment, and no corrosive side-effects. The product is applicable to a wide range of road types and material types, and is the ideal cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to road salts for any municipal projects.

The proper engineering design of roads is important to ensure long term performance and reductions in maintenance requirements and costs. This includes, but is not limited to, the use of proper road building materials and proper shaping and drainage. In cases where some clay content exists, EarthZyme® is the ideal solution for long term stability of roads, better performance in wet weather, and ultimately providing for a road that needs much less long term maintenance. Materials with a high clay content are typically cheaper than traditional materials used to build roads, so their inclusion in re-sheeting or new road builds can allow for reduced costs to build. However even greater savings can be realized when the in situ materials are already abundant in clay, so no new material needs to be hauled in for the road re-sheeting process. Ultimately, the enhanced bonding and stability of the clay fraction of the road allows for greater stability, providing for a much higher performing road.

Aggregates can be a costly and hard to find material in some locations. This can lead to longer distances to haul for road builds, leading to further costs associated with the project. EarthZyme® works specifically to stabilize the clay fraction of materials, allowing for materials with less aggregate to be used to build high performance secondary roads. This enables municipalities and counties to reduce their burden of having to hunt down and source more expensive aggregate materials.

Most municipalities and counties have lagoons to store and treat their municipal wastewater. Unfortunately, sometimes these lagoons can be located in the heart of the municipality, very close to nearby residents and industry. Therefore if these lagoons are not functioning properly and emit foul odours, they can be the source of constant complaints by the community. The use of UltraZyme® in the lagoon can help eliminate these odours at the source, and reduce sludge build up, further enhancing the performance of the lagoons. The selected bacterial and enzyme cultures in UltraZyme® target the organic loads in the lagoon that cause the sludge build up and odour, permanently reducing their negative impact on the lagoon’s performance.
